Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a mini muffin pan, and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and cream cheese with a hand mixer. Slowly add in the flour, mixing until incorporated, then set aside.
In a large bowl, crack the eggs, then scoop in the dark brown sugar. Whisk those two ingredients together, then add the bourbon and melted butter, stirring until the ingredients have been incorporated.
Spoon the pecans into the mixture, then fold in using a plastic spatula. Set aside until ready for use.
Next, you'll form the crusts.
Grab a 1" piece of dough and roll it into a ball in your palm. Press into the mini muffin tin and create a space for the filling to be poured into.
When all the dough is pressed into the muffin tin, scoop one tablespoon of the filling into each cup, cleaning up the edges.
Bake for 30 minutes or until tops have risen and are a light, golden brown. Cool for five minutes, pop the mini pies out of the pan and then enjoy!
